NS 4720 7310 to NS 4794 7304 The published survey (OS 25 inch 1967) was revised. The Ditch-line shows no more than a level tract roughly parallel with a farm track, but further W, approaching NS 4720 7310 from the E, a slight hollow is visible together with a distinct dip at a N-S hedgeline. At this point the pecked course on later OS editions slightly differs from that of 1st edition of the OS 2 and a half inch (1862) which shows extant remains. As the vague ground evidence tends to support the 1st edition, the line has been slightly lowered and a further alignment position introduced.
